When twelve-year-old Noah Sowder accidently slips down a sinkhole into an abandoned mine, he finds that he has fallen into more than an underground cavern. The limestone chamber has been converted into the secret stronghold of a political extremist group planning a brazen kidnapping—one that will bring together two prisoners from different worlds whose struggle to escape threatens both of their lives and changes them forever. Set in a Missouri cave along the Mississippi River, "The Cavern" echoes with the voices of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn as popular mystery writer Allen Kent weaves his own Twain-like tale of adventure, suspense, clashes of culture, and coming-of-age. "The Cavern" is a political suspense novel you will recommend to your teenage children, discuss with like-minded friends, and dissect with those with whom you thought you had nothing in common to talk about.
